How to layer seasonal touches into your home without losing your everyday style.
THE ART OF THE FESTIVE EDIT
Christmas styling doesn’t need to overpower your home. At ND Studios, we believe the season should feel like a natural extension of your everyday aesthetic, gentle, textural, and layered with intention. Rather than transforming your rooms, we focus on elevating what already exists.
We love to work with what your home already does well: its light, its architectural details, its everyday pieces. Seasonal décor then becomes a quiet enhancement a way to soften, warm and enrich the atmosphere, rather than shout over it. The result is a Christmas look that feels both special and deeply familiar.
A simple embroidered napkin, a cluster of pine on a shelf or a basket of wood by the fire can feel more festive than any amount of glitter gestures that stay true to the rhythm of the season.
To pull these moments together, we rely on a few beautifully crafted pieces from ND on the Green. Hand-thrown stoneware pots work effortlessly as vessels for winter branches or as sculptural accents on a console, grounding a room with earthy texture and quiet character.
Next, elevate the everyday rituals. The dining table, kitchen counter or bar trolley become stages for simple festive touches. Repurpose an unexpected piece like a vintage storage bookcase as a Christmas bar to create astandout moment full of personality and charm.
Layer your classic tableware with subtle seasonal details. Our linen napkins embroidered with mistletoe or holly, tied with velvet ribbon or paired with a sprig of rosemary, add a soft, thoughtful Christmas note. A few hand-marbled baubles hung on a coat rack with fresh foliage help carry the festive feeling throughout the home.
For us, mood matters more than theme. A palette of deep greens, claret reds, soft golds and warm neutrals feels timeless and natural. Scent also plays a quiet but powerful role in shaping the atmosphere a few well-placed candles, gently spiced or pine-scented, add warmth and depth to the room.
Candlelight, textured layers and a balance of matte and reflective surfaces create an atmosphere that feels immersive rather than decorative.Above all, comfort leads. Throws on the arm of a chair, generous cushions and soft lighting are the elements that make people linger. When comfort is prioritised, decoration becomes the quiet accompaniment, not the main event.
Your home already tells a story. Christmas should simply add a new chapter. With natural materials, thoughtful details and a handful of beautifully made pieces from ND on the Green, a festive edit can feel unmistakably yours just with a little extra glow.
